ONE SHOT: THE SCRIBBLENAUTS TIME-TRAVELLING T-REX ROBOT-ZOMBIE SMASHING WALLPAPER
Scribblenauts artist Edison Yan gives IGN this plus-size wallpaper tribute to ‘Post 217’, which — if you followed the timeline of the game’s eventual domination of this year’s E3 — you might recognize as the specific NeoGAF forum post that opened the floodgates of its viral acclaim. Key sentence from the post: “I FUCKING TRAVELED THROUGH TIME AND JUMPED ON A DINOSAUR AND USED IT TO KILL MOTHERFUCKING ROBOT ZOMBIES.”
